Junichi Suwabe as Kuni Yamamoto (General Manager)

This film is the story of Rin and Eiji.
Please enjoy the interaction between the two from your own perspective!
I am playing the role of one of the people who is slightly involved with them, the department head.
In the script, only the director is mentioned, so I only just found out that his name is Nakayama (laugh).

Koji Yusa as Tsuguhito Iwata

I will be playing the role of "Tsu-chan" this time.
I have a real name, but I am not called by it in the play (laughs).
(Laughs) Please remember me as "Tsu-chan.
The highlight of the film is the scene between the two of them, so for me, it's enough if you just remember me as "Tsu-chan" (laughs).
Please enjoy the film!

Maria Abo as Megu

My name is Maria Abo, and I play the role of Megu in the anime "Pseudo-Harem.
I originally loved the original story, so I'm very happy to be able to live in the pseudo-harem world as Rin's best friend Megu.
I'm sure I'll make you giggle, get all excited, and even get a little upset. ......?
Let's watch the story of Rin and her senpai together with Megu!

Minako Sato as Kiri Shirasawa

I am Minako Sato, who plays Kiri Shirasawa!
Kiri is a stoic girl who looks up to her senpai Nanakura.
I had a lot of fun during the postrecording because I was able to express the same feelings I usually have toward my seniors!
Please enjoy this pseudo-harem in which all the characters are attractive!

I hope you enjoy this pseudo-harem!
